I have a good buddy that runs the VM on a dual processor system. VMware runs in a most efficent manner ... only using 1-2% of the 2nd cpu when idling ... it performs very will in networking services too ... about the only thing he has not done on it is sound stuff, as he works in a research lab ...

All in all VMware, I think, may be the solution to the win32 apps on linux question. Why worry about developing wine?? you can use networking to share files between the OS's ... and has been stated here a few time ... wine/VMware is pretty much just a stopgap until SW publishers start builing native linux apps ... IMHO

FYI...

Troy.

JC, I agree with you that the NT bgidge clearly indicate to me that curly, larry, and moe and even shep have their engineering act together at Corl. But corl is a side show and to me todays big news is transmeta.com and what impact on the mobile world is in the offing. I was orginally skeptical about crusoe because of it's emulation aspects. I viewed the transmeta web cast today in almost total between win 98 crashing. This may be some bin stuff.
